Who’s really in charge in America? By Robert J. Hutchinson for American Thinker
Nearly six months into the Biden-Harris administration, ordinary Americans are increasingly wondering who is really running the country.
Joe Biden is ostensibly the president, yet he continues to show signs of cognitive impairment — despite the controlled media insistence that all is well and there is nothing to see here.
A politician for more than 40 years, Biden is still able to read prepared remarks in front of a teleprompter but appears to have difficulty answering impromptu questions — fumbling ordinary words, forgetting what he’s speaking about mid-sentence, sometimes even ceasing to speak altogether.

After a number of high-profile gaffes, the White House press office recently conceded that Biden’s handlers don’t want him answering unscripted questions from the media.
Yet now the issue of presidential authority has taken a more ominous turn.
On May 11, a group of 124 retired U.S. military admirals and generals signed a letter questioning Biden’s fitness for office and seemingly challenging the outcome of the 2020 presidential election.
“Recent Democrat leadership’s inquiries about nuclear code procedures sends a dangerous national security signal to nuclear armed adversaries, raising the question about who is in charge,” the letter said. “We must always have an unquestionable chain of command.”
The letter is referring to a recent call by House Democrats that Biden give up sole control of U.S. nuclear weapons. In a letter written by Rep. Jimmy Panetta of California, the Democrats demanded that Biden change the command-and-control structure surrounding America’s nuclear arsenal so that he no longer has the sole authority to launch weapons.
The retired admirals and generals also questioned the legitimacy of the 2020 election, a topic that the nation’s corporate media have declared off-limits from any public discussion.
The “Constitutional Republic is lost” without “fair and honest elections that accurately reflect the ‘will of the people,'” the retired flag officers wrote. “The FBI and Supreme Court must act swiftly when election irregularities are surfaced and not ignore them as was done in 2020.”
